Though quite often you will find that a professional gardener in Eaton Socon doesn't hold any horticultural qualifications, he or she will probably be considerably more knowledgeable than your average "chap down the road". The decision as they say is yours.
You need your cherished garden to be given a degree of respect by whoever is looking after it.

Most Eaton Socon gardeners will also take on jobs like fence repairs, waste removal, laying patios and driveway cleaning.
When hiring a professional gardener you are paying for his/her expertise, so expect to pay in the region of £20 for each hour worked. You may find that your gardener will not be prepared to put in just an hours work. It's possible that your gardener will not be prepared to work for periods of less than 2 hours or more. It is not just a case of working on your garden, they need to allow for travelling time and visits to the local rubbish tip.
It is not the norm for Eaton Socon gardeners to demand money up front, be very suspicious of anyone who does this. Payment in cash is not unusual for gardeners, though this will be requested after all work is completed and approved.

Getting rid of your lawn trimmings and hedge clippings won't always be part of the service so ensure that in your case it is. Unless you need it for your compost heap in which case you might want to keep it.
Working outdoors can be tough and thirsty work, so make sure that there is the offer of a cold or hot drink to help the day along. Considerations like this will always be appreciated and will often result in a better standard of work. Having a friendly rapport with your gardener is also important, so chat with them on a regular basis, discuss plans and bounce ideas off each other. You should not however take this to the extreme, and stand there chattering all day long, which will only hold up your gardener and make the job take longer.
